Good morning,
Today is International Waffle Day, a holiday that started in Sweden as “Våffeldagen” and marked the beginning of spring in the country. It’s the perfect day to eat the waffles of your choice, not just for breakfast, but for any meal.
If you don’t feel like preparing your own waffles, Athens restaurants including Uptown Grill, Court and Union Street Diners and Corner on Union have waffles of all kinds and will do the cooking for you.
